Thursday Night College Football!!!!!






Now that the World Series has concluded, but let me say it was an epic series, maybe the best series ever. We can get back to some football!  Tonight we are going to look at UCLA @ Colorado 9:00est on FS1. Is the magic back in Boulder? It sure seems like it. The Buffs are sitting atop of the Pac-12 south but still have a rough road ahead of them as they still have Washington State ans Utah at the end of the year. They are giving up just 18.1 points a game and putting up 35.4 per game. Colorado is 7-0-1 this season ATS (against the spread) 4-0 at home and 4-0 as the favorite. Folsom Field will be rocking tonight with the Blackout.

UCLA has been one of the most disappointing teams in the nations this season. Starting the season as a playoff contender to now being 3-5 (1-4). And now their star Josh Rosen is out with a shoulder injury. UCLA has not got any breaks go their way this season but they are also not able to create breaks for themselves. The Bruins defense has only given up 30 or more points twice this season, both were losses.

Colorado might come out tight in this game. Lets face it they are not used to being talked about and playing in games that matter this late in the season. Lindsay should have a decent game and Liufau will be able to find some seams and holes in the Bruins defense but they must take advantage of them when they are there. UCLA is not going to just rely on the run in this one with the Buffs defense they will need to have a balanced attack and while Falfaul has been decent the 8 ints in three games does not help UCLA chances.

UCLA is 1-7 ATS 1-3 as the underdog and 0-4 on the road. Everything about this game screams Colorado. But we are going with the Bruins +13. Here is the stat we really like, UCLA has not lost a game by double digits all season.

pick: UCLA +13

Good Luck and Happy Betting!!!
